An RCMP investigation is underway in the Cowichan Valley after a family received disturbing Snapchat pictures and videos of their cat allegedly being drugged and abused.

Sharline Haglund told CTV News that her daughter was sent the videos in the middle of the night on November 22 by a former friend.

“It sounds like they gave her MDMA and then tried to shave her,” said Haglund. “From the post you can see that he has a razor that he’s looking like he’s going to shave her hair, and said he wanted to give her a mohawk or something.”
